I plan to go over to Jasons house thursday to do whatever I can manage to the 82 brat... maybe fix some rust damage, maybe bob the tail, almost certainly trim and prime (maybe paint) the front fenders. install the 3rd eye..... clean the interior...

so anyone in the area that hasnt seen it want to see the $500 rusty beast??

Cutting off the bottoms of the fenders (took them off and cleaned behind them, like 3 pounds of crap was back there) Took out fender liners, trimmed sides of valance to the outside of the frame rails, trimmed everything below the fender cut on teh valance (so only the center remains pretty much) Pretty much now the only thing below the bumper in front of the tire is open air

The skid plate and engine undertrays have been pulled off as has the wiper cowl (gonna prep and paint that tomorrow)

Got the right turn signal rewired and flashing again, the 3rd eye installed and wired, but it still doesnt work :cornfuzz:

Lots of rust back there I broke plenty of bolts, but once I'm done it will be good and solid again
